The new Google Nest Learning Thermostat has been unveiled by the tech brand as its latest intelligent heating and cooling controller that's designed with aesthetics and artificial intelligence (AI) in mind.
The thermostat starts off with an aesthetically pleasing profile that makes it look like a work of art on the wall thanks to its glass-like form. The thermostat will harness the power of Google's generative AI model Gemini to deliver a conversational user experience, while also offering four display faces to choose from. Measuring in at 3.9-inches in diameter, the thermostat has a borderless 2.7-inch LCD screen that's 60% larger than the previous model and comes in three color options inlacing polished Obsidian, Polished Silver and Polished Gold.
The new Google Nest Learning Thermostat is priced at $280 and comes with a Temperature Sensor in the box that can be placed elsewhere in the home for better contextual awareness of temperature conditions.
